Ximen Group Headquarters, Executive President’s Office.
Xu Tonglu dialed the number of his old classmate Jiang Sheng. Jiang Sheng is currently the CEO of Zhengyang Group and manages the entire Zhengyang Group for Xi Zhilan and others.
Jiang Sheng still doesn't know about the grudges between the Xu brothers and Xi Zhilan and others.
"Hello? Brother Sheng, are you busy?"
As soon as the phone call came through, a bright smile suddenly appeared on Xu Tonglu's face, which was originally dull.
Jiang Sheng: "What do you think? This early in the morning, there are a lot of documents that need to be approved by me! No, you, Mr. Xu, are in charge of such a large group as the Ximen Group. Logically speaking, this early in the morning, you should be more important than me.
You are busy, how can you have time to call me at this time?"
Xu Tonglu: "Haha, I am different from you. Your group has been established for a short time and has a lot of things, which is normal. However, my company has been established for so many years, and most things are on track. Basically, there is a dedicated person responsible for everything.
, I'm definitely not as busy as you."
As he spoke, he chuckled twice, seeming a little proud.
Jiang Sheng: "Fuck! Are you here to show off to me?"
Xu Tonglu: "Huh? Did you find out?"
Jiang Sheng: "Fuck!"
After swearing, Jiang Sheng asked angrily: “Mr.
We have to deal with it quickly, but I don’t have time to talk on the phone with you!”
On the phone, Xu Tonglu had a smile in his eyes. He made this call today just to find out from Jiang Sheng how Xi Zhilan's Zhengyang Group planned to deal with this publicity issue.
"Oh? There's a problem with your group's first project? What's the problem? Why don't you tell me? I'll help you come up with ideas!"
"Tell you what? You're not in an entertainment company. What advice can you give me?"
Jiang Sheng immediately expressed his doubts.
Xu Tonglu didn't take it seriously, "Look what you said, the company you are currently working on, the idea of planning the project, but I gave you the entertainment company, although our family has never been involved in it, but making movies and TV series, I imagine
Many times.”
Jiang Sheng: "..."
After a few seconds of silence, Jiang Sheng said: "Oh! Speaking of which, the problem I encountered this time happened to be related to your eldest brother! I asked, why is your eldest brother having an affair with Lin Yuner again? They are not really having an affair, right?"
Xu Tonglu: "Oh? It's related to my elder brother's scandal? How do you say this?"
Xu Tonglu did not answer whether his eldest brother and Lin Yuner were really having an affair.
Because he made this call to inquire about information from Jiang Sheng, not to leak his eldest brother's privacy.
Jiang Sheng: "What do you think? The first TV series produced by our company has just started to be promoted recently, and a series of publicity plans have been decided. Suddenly, your eldest brother had an affair with Lin Yuner, which suddenly made the headlines and brought us here.
The drama has completely stolen the limelight, and the investors above urged me to resolve this matter quickly last night! Do you think this matter has anything to do with your elder brother? Huh?"
The corners of Xu Tonglu's mouth raised, and the smile in his eyes became thicker, "Well, let me say sorry to you on behalf of my elder brother. Well, how are you going to deal with this publicity issue?"
Jiang Sheng was unprepared and said casually: "How else can I deal with it? When encountering such an emergency, I can only admit that I am unlucky. The established publicity plan remains unchanged. The investors allow me to increase the publicity by 2 million.
Let’s use the funds and add some more publicity plans!”
Xu Tonglu smiled slightly, "Oh? So it's about using the money ability? Well, although it's a bit simple and crude, the money ability is really good. This is a good plan! But Brother Sheng, you have to treat me to a drink later!"
Jiang Sheng: "Ah? Why? Your family is so rich, why do you want me, a wage earner, to treat you to a drink? Are you embarrassed?"
Xu Tonglu: "Ha, why do you think so? If I hadn't insisted that you go to Xi Zhilanla to invest, would you have such abundant funds to use now? Can you use your money power so happily?"
Jiang Sheng was amused.
"Haha, if you say that, then I should really treat you to a drink later, okay! I'll treat you later, okay?"
Xu Tonglu: "Okay! That's such a happy decision."
Jiang Sheng: "Okay, it's decided. By the way, do you have anything else? If not, I'll hang up. I'm really in a hurry here!"
Xu Tonglu: "Well, go about your business! Remember to treat me to a drink later."
…
After the call ended, Xu Tonglu squinted and pondered for a moment, then picked up the landline phone on the table and dialed a series of short numbers, "Sissi, come in!"
"Okay, Mr. Xu."
Xu Tonglu put down the phone, and soon, the office door was pushed open, and his secretary Yao Yuqian walked in, with her hands folded on her lower abdomen, "Mr. Xu, what are your orders?"
Xu Tonglu raised his eyes and asked her, "Have you made any progress with the scandal information I asked you to collect?"
Yao Yuqian smiled and nodded, "Mr. Xu, I was about to report this to you. You asked me to collect this information last night. I asked some people to help us collect it. Good news came early this morning.
A well-known paparazzi in the circle has scandal information on several celebrities, including kings and queens. However, the price offered by the other party is very high. I can't make the decision and I dare not agree. I am just about to ask you for instructions!"
Hearing such good news, Xu Tonglu had a smile on his face, leaned back on his chair, and asked with a smile: "Oh? Which celebrities are there? You can tell me first! Also,
Please tell me the price of each material."
Yao Yuqian opened her mouth and mentioned the names of several celebrities.
Sure enough, there are two names of kings and queens among them.
But the price she mentioned was not cheap either.
Among them, the paparazzi quoted 10 million for the scandal information of the king, and 8 million for the queen.
For several other celebrities' scandal information, the lowest price was 1 million.
After hearing this, Xu Tonglu frowned slightly.
He planned to expose one or two more scandalous materials about popular celebrities after the scandal between his eldest brother Xu Tongdao and Lin Yuner declined, so as to continue to suppress the publicity of Zhengyang Group's first TV series.
However, the quotes from several celebrity scandals obtained by secretary Yao Yuqian this time were a bit beyond Xu Tonglu's psychological expectations.
After all, Zhengyang Group will broadcast "Half of Love" this time. Because of the scandal surrounding his eldest brother Xu Tongdao, it will only have an additional 2 million yuan in promotional funds.
If he, Xu Tonglu, spends more money here, then the gain outweighs the loss.
After thinking for a while, Xu Tonglu said to Yao Yuqian: "Qianqian, go and ask that paparazzi. Since he has so much scandal information about celebrities, ask him if he has any dirty information about Chen Xiao and Liu Tao.
You tell him, if he has any dirty information about these two people, I can pay a high price to buy it!"
Chen Xiao and Liu Tao are the male and female protagonists of the drama "Half of Love".
If we could get some dirty information about them and expose it before the show is officially aired, would the show still be popular?
